Dan In Real Life on DVD (2007)

A real feel good movie!

A customer from SW London , 15/01/2008

I quite enjoyed this film, despite finding Carell very irritating.( He seems to only ever know how to act as one persona) It 's your typical feel good movie, a bit OTT in places but good to watch once. In a nutshell, it's the difficulties a widowed dad of three girls faces when his younger brother brings home a much older woman who happens to be Dan's (widowed dad's/Carell's) ideal woman.

Will or won't they end up together? You'll have to watch the film to find out, but it shouldn't be too hard to figure out!

Quite entertaining

PaulaWestwood from Ashton-Under-Lyne [Highly rated reviewer] , 28/01/2008

Not typical Steve Carrell for me, he plays a charachter who is a little mour dour and unfunny than his usual portrayals. Thats not to say this has no humour at all, it is funny in places and funny-sad in others, but in general this is a much heavier movie than I expected. I expected something a but fun and fluffy, but this tackles the break up/relationship scenario a tad more seriously. Juliette Binoche is perfect (as always) though and adds an extra dimension that this film would have lacked without herthere. As really does the underrated (to me) Dane Cook. All in all not as much a giggle as I expected, but definately worth a watch.

I love Steve Carrell but this was a real let down.

Vile and sisnister movie

Lunar from Derby [Highly rated reviewer] , 16/06/2008

A guy tries to steal his brother's girlfriend, whilst all his family is having a get together. Hmm, lovely! Tries to be cute about it, whilst ticking off all the boxes of what a 'cute' film should do, but there's naer a good performance to be seen and the whole thing just made me feel genuinely uncomfortable.

DAN IS NOT VERY FUNNY

LITTLEREDRILEY from Manchester , 09/08/2008

On the box it says laugh out loud! i didnt laugh out loud once, it was awful, the idea behind the film was clearly funnier than the actual film - which maybe twice throughout the whole film was slightly humourous and made me grin, but the rest was slow, boring and predictable! Do not watch this film expecting to laugh - you wont! his worst film to date!
